I have recently set up HTTPS access for our spicework and set up a remote collector at another site. Our central spiceworks server has a remote probe which is pointing to the local host and asking for authorisation? I dont have a authorisation key so I cant seem to do this and our normal network scans are not running. Has anyone had something similar? I have also tried upgrading to the new version?

Hey thanks for the replies. Unfortunatley the issue I am facing is that the remote collector works fine but it has shown a remote probe which is 127.0.0.1:443 which is my local server. I think that this needs authorisation before I can scan the network but there is no authentication key with this being the central server?

127.0.0.1 is ever local. It`s the loopback address of your machine. Point the remote collector to your main installation of spiceworks. It must be an address which the remote collector needs to reach across the internet or tunnel (if you have).

At the remote collector machine, open a browser and type http(s)://IP.of.SWmain.machine:80 or :9675. If you get the correct login page of your main installation, use this address for your remote collector.
